This is the age of vice, where money, pleasure, and power are everything, and the family ties that bind can also kill.New Delhi, 3 a.m. A speeding Mercedes jumps the curb and in the blink of an eye, five people are dead. It’s a rich man’s car, but when the dust settles there is no rich man at all, just a shell-shocked servant who cannot explain the strange series of events that led to this crime. Nor can he foresee the dark drama that is about to unfold.Deftly shifting through time and perspective in contemporary India, Age of Vice is an epic, action-packed story propelled by the seductive wealth, startling corruption, and bloodthirsty violence of the Wadia family — loved by some, loathed by others, feared by all.In the shadow of lavish estates, extravagant parties, predatory business deals and calculated political influence, three lives become dangerously intertwined: Ajay is the watchful servant, born into poverty, who rises through the family’s ranks. Sunny is the playboy heir who dreams of outshining his father, whatever the cost. And Neda is the curious journalist caught between morality and desire. Against a sweeping plot fueled by loss, pleasure, greed, yearning, violence and revenge, will these characters’ connections become a path to escape, or a trigger of further destruction?Equal parts crime thriller and family saga, transporting readers from the dusty villages of Uttar Pradesh to the urban energy of New Delhi, Age of Vice is an intoxicating novel of gangsters and lovers, false friendships, forbidden romance, and the consequences of corruption. It is binge-worthy entertainment at its literary best.

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Daughter of Doctor Moreau and Mexican Gothic comes a fabulous meld of Mexican horror movies and Nazi occultism: a dark thriller about the curse that haunts a legendary lost film--and awakens one woman's hidden powers.Montserrat has always been overlooked. She’s a talented sound editor, but she’s left out of the boys’ club running the film industry in ’90s Mexico City. And she’s all but invisible to her best friend, Tristán, a charming if faded soap opera star, though she’s been in love with him since childhood.Then Tristán discovers his new neighbor is the cult horror director Abel Urueta, and the legendary auteur claims he can change their lives—even if his tale of a Nazi occultist imbuing magic into highly volatile silver nitrate stock sounds like sheer fantasy. The magic film was never finished, which is why, Urueta swears, his career vanished overnight. He is cursed.Now the director wants Montserrat and Tristán to help him shoot the missing scene and lift the curse . . . but Montserrat soon notices a dark presence following her, and Tristán begins seeing the ghost of his ex-girlfriend.As they work together to unravel the mystery of the film and the obscure occultist who once roamed their city, Montserrat and Tristán may find that sorcerers and magic are not only the stuff of movies.

Max Hastings nos trae uno de los capítulos más dramáticos olvidados de la segunda guerra mundial.En agosto de 1942, una asediada Malta estuvo a pocas semanas de rendirse porque sus 300.000 habitantes ya no podían ser alimentados. Churchill tomó la decisión personal de salvar a toda costa la ''isla fortaleza''. No se trataba simplemente de una cuestión de estrategia, sino de prestigio nacional, cuando la fortuna y la moral de Gran Bretaña habían caído a su punto más bajo. Por las páginas de este libro veremos desfilar catastróficos hundimientos de buques, junto con luchas por rescatar a los supervivientes y salvar los barcos siniestrados. Max Hastings describe esta historia como una de las más extraordinarias que jamás haya contado. Hasta las últimas horas, ningún participante de ninguno de los dos bandos pudo saber cuál sería el resultado de una epopeya de suspense y valor en tiempos de guerra.

#1 New York Times Bestseller. Over 10 million copies sold. In this generation-defining self-help guide, a superstar blogger cuts through the crap to show us how to stop trying to be ''positive'' all the time so that we can truly become better, happier people. For decades, we’ve been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. ''F**k positivity,'' Mark Manson says. ''Let’s be honest, shit is f**ked and we have to live with it.'' In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn’t sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is—a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is his antidote to the coddling, let’s-all-feel-good mindset that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up. Manson makes the argument, backed both by academic research and well-timed poop jokes, that improving our lives hinges not on our ability to turn lemons into lemonade, but on learning to stomach lemons better. Human beings are flawed and limited—''not everybody can be extraordinary, there are winners and losers in society, and some of it is not fair or your fault.'' Manson advises us to get to know our limitations and accept them. Once we embrace our fears, faults, and uncertainties, once we stop running and avoiding and start confronting painful truths, we can begin to find the courage, perseverance, honesty, responsibility, curiosity, and forgiveness we seek. There are only so many things we can give a f**k about so we need to figure out which ones really matter, Manson makes clear. While money is nice, caring about what you do with your life is better, because true wealth is about experience. A much-needed grab-you-by-the-shoulders-and-look-you-in-the-eye moment of real-talk, filled with entertaining stories and profane, ruthless humor, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F**k is a refreshing slap for a generation to help them lead contented, grounded lives.

El reflex dÆun jove revolucionari que enfronta tot poder i que organitza als obrers georgians per viure dÆuna altra manera.Homenatge a Stalin, critica velada? Jutja tu mateix.Mikhaïl Bulgàkov (K¡iv, 1891 - Moscou, 1940) es va llicenciar en Medicina lÆany 1916 i va exercir aquesta professió fins que va decidir abandonar-la per dedicar-se a lÆescriptura. A partir del 1921, any en què es va instal·lar a Moscou, va col·laborar en diversos diaris i va començar la seva carrera dÆescriptor. Va patir una censura sistemàtica per part de Stalin, per. va continuar traduint i escrivint teatre i literatura sotmès a una gran penúria i a unes dificultats extremes fins al final dels seus dies. Entre les seves obres, destaquen La guàrdia blanca, Cor de gos i El mestre i Margarida.«Bulgàkov és un conspirador contra el llenguatge.» Boris Groys«La seva genialitat és que la seva energia sat¡rica i les seves provocacions són tan multidireccionals que, molts anys i molts canvis de règim després, encara sembla recentment desafiant.» The Guardian«Sarcàstic i mordaç, genial.» Núvoloja luz sobre nuestro mundo».ù Yolanda D¡az«Un manifiesto tiene fuerza no porque es prescriptivo de lo que deber¡a suceder, sino porque reúne una serie de elementos que, puestos en conjunto, comprueban la existencia de ese mundo novedoso, pero ya existente.»ù Veronica Gago «Mientras que la mayor¡a de los trabajos teóricos del pasado son ahora letra muerta, las vibrantes frases de Marx y Engels seguirán sacudiendo e iluminando el próximo siglo.ù Hans Magnus Enzensberger«[El manifiesto es] un texto formidable que sabe alternar tonos apocal¡pticos e iron¡a, eslóganes eficaces y explicaciones claras, y (si la sociedad capitalista quiere realmente contarse a s¡ misma los disgustos que le han causado estas pocas páginas) todav¡a hoy deber¡a analizarse rigurosamente en las escuelas de publicidad». ù Umberto EcoPero solo una obra inmensa -que aún tiene mucho que decirnos 150 años después- podr¡a invitar a este tipo de escrutinio cr¡tico. Nada podr¡a dar un testimonio más convincente de la genialidad de El manifiesto que la energ¡a que se ha gastado en atacarlo.öù Ellen Meiksins Wood
